Re: Pwr Steering Fluid Leak
Fortunately for you, you don't have a rack and pinion like the new
Cherokee and Libby, you have the much stronger recalculating ball, worm
and sector made by Saginaw and used since the early fifties Cadillac.

Ouch! Believe it or not, that can be very bad... I've
heard tales of high-pressure fluid getting under the
skin... it could actually cut a limb off, or worse, for
big hydraulic things.

Glad to be of service... also glad it was an easy
fix.
